Rich Pain in the Ass

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-28 04:24:14

Jason’s POV

I was grumpy, my head hurt, my mouth was sore and it felt like I would drop dead in the next minute. But I had to show up for the Rogers party. It was a tech summit and I was a member of the board in plethora INC.

I hadn’t even known I was until my third meeting with Rogers last year and Sabrina had told me the fifth reason why I had to show up. In her words, ‘I doubt you know how much wealth you have amassed’.

I hoped she knew I didn’t, I just wanted to code and exist, maybe make major mistakes sometimes. I was thinking of the brief conversation with Emma that I had earlier, the one that involved me being a total jerk.

The one where I wanted to believe it was just because of the senator’s unexpected entrance in my life, the one I knew was actually because of my tired state, the pain of waking up to someone that wasn’t her, I wanted her back. Fast too.

“The car is ready sir!” The butler said from outside my door and I grumbled, of course the car was ready. I was the one

    Emma’s POVI had noticed his glance on me all through the night, it was hard not to notice those boring blue eyes. I had been bored to death by the man Lorelai had introduced me to, but wasn’t that what I was searching for? A safe man, far different from the one standing in front of me.“What do I want? I cannot say hello to you?” He asked me and I rolled my eyes. “This is a way to say hello, taking me away from my escort. Isn’t the pretty event planner here, the other one that I was accused of being jealous of. Rachel?” I snapped and he looked at me like I had gone mad. Maybe I had, but I was definitely out of line, I wanted to play the irritated mysterious event planner today but he had sucked out the rage in me.“Escort? You came alone, I watched Lorelai introduce you to him! And what does Rachel have to do with this? I haven’t seen her today,” he paused and looked at me, his eyes glinting mischievously in the dark night. “Unless you’re jealous.”I gasped, and then moved away from

    Jason’s POVShe smelt like bubblegum, I couldn’t explain it or how that thought settled in my head but she did and I tried not to smuggle close to her, it would be very weird. I watched her from the side and she was pretty content being mute. She wasn’t saying anything and I didn’t want to probe words out of her so I remembered the files Sabrina had sent for me to go through. I brought out my phone and went there, the words weren’t working out well for my eyes so I immediately slipped out my glasses. I put them on and before I knew it, I was lost in tech language and contract terms.I had forgotten all about the parcel I received few days ago and I had seen the distraction I needed to not gawk at Emma. Her smell was intrusive but I allowed it exist as a residing fragrance.“You look so odd with them,” she finally said. The way my head shot up would probably be referred to as a little to obvious but I didn’t care.“What?” I asked her, narrowing my eyes.“The glasses, you look so…. Har

    Emma’s POV“Well open it! Who is it from?” She squealed in excitement, brightening up in a most suspicious manner. “What?”“Was he in here last night?” I asked, playing with the box, it was a velvet based box, big enough to contain a set of keys. “Yeah, he carried you from the car. I promised you he was behaving himself. Did he send the box?” “If he was here, it means he didn’t send the box. He set the box,” I responded, he hadn’t changed so much and that was bad for me because even though I lied that I was a different person, it seem like I was fated to fall in love with a Jason Micheal type in every lifetime.“Well open it! Don’t tell me you plan to play the righteous ex and return it?” She said with horror showing it’s face in her expression.I shook my head. “I don’t want a present from Jason.” At least not one that was so strategically placed and given, it would mean too much intention, it would mean a Jason comeback. I didn’t want that for my life or career.“Just open this,

    Jason’s POV“You are asking me that? I should be asking you!” She snapped and my eyes went to the box that lay open on the ground. It had not hit me with much force, just enough to my surprise me and irritate me too. What was with the violence?I bent and picked it up, of course it was the locket I had placed by her window. I knew just like me, her habit of checking her window whenever she woke up would still remain and that was why I had placed it there. I expected her to see it and get upset a little, but smile when she read the message but maybe she had indeed changed. Because her tossing it at me wasn’t in my bingo card. “I’m beginning to think you need to see the anger management people. I think this means I can’t give you presents?” I asked her and she shook her head. I was concerned for her.She even looked more amusing, she was dressed in a pink floral dress. She had really chosen a pink dress to start a fight with me? What was that, manipulation or what?“You won’t tell me

    Emma’s POVA waitress stood right in front of him and I watched as Jason’s eyes widened, he didn’t move from the chair and for some reason I stopped too. My coffee remained glued to my lips and my eyes did most of the screening. I didn’t hear what she had called him but I know it wasn’t the name I knew. “Marilla,” he muttered and she laughed. Light hearted and unless I was imagining it, flirty. She had on a full blown flirtation spree.“It’s me, it has been like a hundred years. How are you? I mean aren’t you going to give me a hug or something?” She joked and Jason stood up and gave her the most half sided hug there was.“Ermm, Marilla this is Emma, my erm, friend and Emma, this is Marilla, we went to the same high school. She was something then and she still is even now!” He muttered and I nodded, smiling politely at the woman.“Hi,” I said under my breath and she responded with as much zeal.“So.. what are you doing here in our humble restaurant? I never imagined this was where I

I had gone home straight, I didn’t think I would focus on work so there was no point listening to Sabrina talk and talk.“Dinner?” Miss Loo asked me as I stepped out of my coat and pulled off my shoes, changing into house slippers, I nodded and hugged her. She gasped and pulled me away. “My my, you are in an odd mood. Are you sick?”“I am just triumphant. I finally got the woman,” I muttered and even though I didn’t think she knew what I was talking about, she brightened up. “Miss Wilson?” She asked me with awe in her tone and it may have as well belonged to me. Did everybody know about my obsession with her? “Rowland and I were just talking about your last paper story! You go everywhere with her and you send her gifts all the time, I finally see her?”Somehow, her excitement managed to even be more than mine. I was psyched but she was ecstatic. “I

    Emma’s POVI didn’t get a text that evening, even though I waited and waited there was nothing. You didn’t just kiss a woman breathless and tell her the sweetest things and not call, it didn’t make sense that way. I was at work and bent over my computer with Irene, we were going over flower arrangements for Jason’s party and she was doing a rough sketch of the 4D picture of the venue that Sabrina, his secretary had sent me. “Wow, the place is so cool. He sure has a lot of money, I once heard that his house cost 15 million dollars and he is generally worth about 800 million dollars. He doesn’t even act like he has that huge amount of money,” Irene said in a very chatty manner as she made the sketch.My stomach did a triple flip, if she was telling the truth -of which she never lied- it was a very overwhelming amount and it was more like, did Jason know his wealth was that vast? He has always been simple, even when he does luxurious things and brings a limousine to pick me up from m

It was a Tuesday night and Anna was working overnight so it was only me at home, I had attempted to delete the rude message I sent just before my package arrived but I couldn’t so I would just have to wait till I read his message and maybe I would call him.It was almost awkward, almost like we were high school lovers with little idea what love was, like we didn’t know what to do with the feelings that were existent between us, but we did, we didn’t just know if it was time to set it in motion. I had taken my bath, eaten left over pizza and plugged in my new devices to charge and I settled on the bed, with two slices of pizza still left in the carton and the letter.Letters had been our way of communicating during classes, my heart was pounding fast. What if he didn’t want us to go through with it?To my Emerson,I sunk further into the bed a

Bye ladies,” I responded as I closed the door and went over to the other side. I knew both her employee Irene and Anna were there, I had heard them whisper before the door opened, at least now I knew she had people that loved her deeply when I wasn’t there.“Hi,” I said as I settled next to her in the Lexus. She turned to face me, her heart shaped face carrying her full lips with so much expertise. “I want to kiss you,” “What’s stopping you?” She asked me and I smiled, an intentional and tummy fluttering smile. I loved her so much. I settled a light kiss on her full lips since she had given me something like a go ahead, showing she wants it as much as I wanted it, before heading for our destination. I had made lots of plans for this dinner night. I wanted it to be a remarkable one for her. I did feel sad about those night

Just put it on,” Irene said and I immediately did that, the black dress was a very unique style. Immediately I saw it, I knew I loved it. It was a long dress with a deep neckline that showed a lot of my cleavage, a low opened back and fitted all around the bodice.

I was a little sore from the nonstop love making. I had come three times that night and I still wanted him. I didn’t know what the time was, I knew it was late and roughly, the time was around 4:00 AM.I could hear the silent whisper of the ocean and the scattered and tired conversations from the beach.
